The ICC Cricket World Cup 2023 is all set to witness a crucial showdown between New Zealand and Pakistan in Bengaluru. Unfortunately, this highly anticipated match faces uncertainty due to the looming threat of rain. Bengaluru has experienced sporadic showers and thunderstorms in the days leading up to the match, and these inclement weather conditions are expected to persist on Saturday.
Bengaluru Weather Forecast, NZ vs PAK:
The weather forecast for Saturday in Bengaluru indicates a significant 70% to 80% chance of rain during the afternoon, potentially affecting the outcome of the NZ vs PAK match. The day is expected to be mostly cloudy, with scattered showers and a thunderstorm forecasted for the afternoon hours. The temperature is anticipated to be around 28°C.
As evening approaches, the weather remains dynamic, with the possibility of further thunderstorms. The temperature is expected to drop to around 20°C, providing a cooler environment. However, the chances of rain affecting the region still remain relatively high at 70%.
What If the NZ vs PAK World Cup Match Is Washed Out?
In the unfortunate event of the New Zealand vs Pakistan match being washed out, both teams will receive one point each. It’s important to note that a washed-out match won’t impact the net run rate.
